1. Oh thou who art gracious,
And didst not refuse,
The humble petitions
Of Gentiles and Jews;
They sought and found mercy,
In Jesus the Lord,
Oh now to thy servant,
Such blessings afford.
2. Thou art a physician,
All skilful to heal,
In all my diseases,
Thy pity can feel;
Thou knowest I'm bruised,
And wounded all o'er,
Look down in thy mercy,
Thy servant restore.
3. Let faith in the Saviour
Encourage my heart,
Let some sacred promise
True comfort impart;
His blood ever cleansing,
Oh may I apply,
On him without doubting,
For safety rely.
4. Expel the vile tempter,
Dear Lord, from my breast,
Then make it thy dwelling,
And soothe it to rest;
Let light, life, and pleasure
My pathway surround,
And let me in Jesus
For ever be found.
